Overall, the PAX moved well through the entire gambit while giving it all they had
Coffee-o-rama was in high attendance today.
Almost no recovery rests today, it was sort of built into the running, planking and moderate pace on everything else.
Something is going on Sept 29th to mark 6 months of Raleigh F3, I was told everybody should mark their calendars.
